summer is coming and I am looking at my ratty collection of t-shirts and need some new ones.

While generally I love korea the one thing that makes me think "I hate it here" is clothes shopping. sick of going shop to shop, being told no big size, or being given stuff to try on that means I either can't fit my arms through or if I do can't move my arms

Can anyone recommend a shop/area that sells some nice t-shirts for someone a bit bigger across the chest than the average korean guy. It's not to hard to find nice shirts that fit either chest or waist but never the two. (waist 30-32 chest 44-46).

cheers

7-11 in I'taewon and many of them near subway stations often sells Fruit of the Loom brand T-Shirts in your size. The 7-11 in Itaewon is about 100 hundred feet past the Itaewon Hotel.

In the same boat here. i just take them in to get tailored. If i find shirts that fit across the chest and arms then they usually hang like a tent to the waist. It costs 2000 to 5000 per shirt to get them fitted properly.

It's funny - the things that become necessary in foreign countries. You're taking t-shirts to the tailor? Haha.
